Spring...will eventually come.  And in the mean time, I whipped up a fun gift that would be perfect for neighbors, teachers, Mother's Day or for a friend.  These cute DIY Stenciled Gift Bags are a perfect reminder to Bloom Where You're Planted and they hold cute little flower seeds which is the perfect inexpensive gift this time of year!

To create these cute drawstring stenciled bags you will begin by making your stencil.  I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut my stencil design out of stencil vinyl.  But you can create this with scissors or an exacto knife and stencil paper.  I applied my stencil to my drawstring bag and used a foam brush and fabric paint to paint my design on the fabric.  Let it dry, take the stencil off and you have a really cute gift bag!
